quote:
My first thought about knowledge is that knowledge is information that we believe to be true. I know you dislike concepts filled with dualities like true and false, but this is the way that I see things.
I think I would change your use of the word "true" with the word "reliable".
Since what we know can be relied upon to a greater or lesser extent depending upon each bit of knowledge, then this allows for infinite shades of gray.
The universe is not a dualistic place. There are infinite shades of gray.
I would say that knowledge has to be able to reliably stand up to testing. If it doesn't, such as belief in the supernatural, then it must be considered myth and mystery, not knowledge.
